David Tennant chats to Zoe about BBC One's adaptation of Around the World in 80 Days.

David Tennant tells Zoe about the upcoming series of 'Around the World in 80 Days', BBC One's new adaptation of the classic adventure novel by Jules Verne.

David Tennant chats to Zoe about the new series of 'Around the World in 80 Days'. David is best known for playing The Doctor in 'Doctor Who', Barty Crouch, Jr. in 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire', DI Alec Hardy in 'Broadchurch', Kilgrave in 'Jessica Jones', and for playing himself in the lockdown comedy 'Staged' with Michael Sheen. He's won two Baftas, two Emmys and six National Television Awards including his 'Special Recognition' award in 2015. 

Jürgen Krauss is at hand with his trusty trombone to take your Christmas music requests, including God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas and Silent Night! Originally from the Black Forest in Germany, Jürgen moved to the UK in 2003. Unable to find traditional German bread in his adopted home, Jürgen decided to bake his own – and his passion for baking has grown ever since. Fans of The Great British Bake Off were shocked when he was eliminated during the semi-finals despite having won three Star Baker accolades. Ofcom later received 115 complaints from angry viewers!

Ken Bruce has a fiendishly difficult question to help launch this week's Champions League PopMaster 2021, where the best of the best quizzers return on his show in a bid to claim that coveted PopMaster trophy.

And Zoe plays three disco classics from her personal collection in the Disco Ball at 8.30!

Along with Clare Runacres on news, Richie Anderson on travel and Mike Williams on sport, Zoe and the team have the best start to your morning.

There's also a Pause For Thought from Steve Chalke and your calls, texts, emails and voice notes as Zoe entertains the nation with fun for the family!
